RMCC Modbus Example – Verify Address Change
Using EtherNet/IP Communication
To use RMCC with the EtherNet/IP communication protocol, the controller
must be configured to use a static IP address. If the controller is configured to use
BOOTP or DHCP, the change will be rejected. A CIP Generic message is sent
from within a program with the following parameters.
Use RMCC when configuring the controller during commissioning. Immediately
after changing the IP address, the cycle time may increase up to 100 ms for one
program scan.
